Eyes: Crochet or embroider black ovals, adding white highlights for a realistic look. Alternatively, use safety eyes.
Nose: Embroider a small black triangle or crochet a tiny piece to sew on.

Cuffs or Ties

Add a ribbed cuff using SC or DC in the back loop only, or crochet a tie to thread through the ankle for extra security.
